It's called catering to your audience. Not unusual, politicians do it.

I'm sure he's quite aware Ole Miss isn't in the same stratosphere as Alabama academically.

Well ,"We are the champions" is a shorter sentence than "Another one bites the dust."

I'm sure Ole Miss people are the type who fall for it when their favorite band comes to town and they say...

"Insert your city here is the best city with the best crowd we've ever seen."

And the crowd goes wild.
"Did you hear? He said we were the best."

As they say, thank god for Mississippi.

In all seriousness Brokaw can say what he wants; he's earned that.

I don't think it is a big deal as he was speaking at the Ole Miss graduation. Probably more surprised he didn't take a swipe at MSU during his speech. Overall though, a good dig by Brokaw
